Dubai Offshore Company Formation
Hold assets and trade internationally from a Dubai-registered vehicle.
An offshore company is a corporate vehicle for holding assets, shares or property and for trading outside the UAE. It is not a residency route: no visas or physical office are issued, and it does not trade inside the UAE market.
Teerma prepares the incorporation documents through a registered agent, arranges certified corporate documents and helps you present the structure to banks.
Why businesses choose it
- 100% foreign ownership with straightforward shareholding
- Useful for holding shares, intellectual property or approved property
- No requirement for a physical office or staff
- Confidential structure with a registered agent address
- Internationally recognised corporate documents
Licence types
- Offshore / international business company
How long it takes
Usually 3–7 working days once documents are attested.
Costs depend on your activity, visas and office. Use the cost calculator for an itemised estimate.
What we handle for you
Activity selection and trade name, initial approvals, the memorandum and licence application, tenancy or desk paperwork, establishment card, visas and Emirates ID, and the documents your bank will ask for. You get one point of contact and a clear list of what is needed from you.
Questions we are asked
Can an offshore company get visas?
No. If you need UAE residency, a mainland or free zone licence is the right route, and we can pair the two.
Can it trade in the UAE?
No — it trades internationally. It can, however, own shares in a UAE company.
